Megan McKenna,33, was photographed sun‑bathing in Mallorca with her husband Oliver Burke , 29 , and their 19‑month‑old son Landon. While the family enjoyed a beach day, McKenna announced a new phase in her career:a return to country music with deeply personal songs that she says will reveal a different side of herself.
Megan’s Country Chart Debut and the X Factor Deal
According to the Daily Mail, McKenna’s debut studio album, Story of Me, hit No. 1 on the UK Official Country Albums Chart in 2018. The following year she won The X Factor: Celebrity, earning a record deal with Simon Cowell’s Syco label. However, a year later COVID‑19 forced the collapse of that deal, a setback McKenna says she handled with resilience.

While the Daily Mail captured McKenna in a graphic swimsuit with her son’s name on a necklace, the report also highlighted her husband’s role as a Union Berlin footballer. The couple,who married in June 2025,were described as “doting parents” as they floated Landon in an inflatable in the sea. The photo‑rich outing underscores how McKenna balances public scrutiny with private joy.
From ‘Mad Megan’ to a Voice of Authenticity
McKenna told the Daily Mail that she has moved from hiding her TV presence to embracing it. She says, “I always wanted to hide the fact that I was on TV but this time I’ve gone into it and I’m embracing this.” The interview also revealed that she has faced abusive comments in public and online, prompting her to use her openness as a “power” rather than a liability.
Unanswered Questions About the New Music Project
While the Daily Mail reports McKenna is recording new, deeply personal songs, it does not disclose the release date, the label backing the project, or the thematic focus of the tracks. It also leaves unclear whether the new material will be released under her own name or a new stage persona.
